Snohomish County Newborn Photography Studio
You are exhausted, overwhelmed, and completely in love. You know these early days are fleeting - but planning a newborn session on top of everything else feels like one thing too many.
That's exactly why I built IJ Photo. My Everett studio is fully prepared for your arrival. Props, sets, wraps — all ready. You don't need to bring anything, plan anything, or know anything about posing. I'll guide every moment gently, at your baby's pace, with time built in for feeding, soothing, and all the in-between moments that make a session real.
For over 25 years, I've been helping Seattle-area families capture their most important moments. I'm a mom of four. I understand what this season feels like. And I promise: you don't have to be ready. You just have to show up.

6 reasons why now matters:
Your baby deserves to know
they were loved from the very beginning.
-
Because this window closes faster than you think
The curled poses, the tiny hands, the milk-drunk sleeps — they're only possible in the first few weeks. Professional newborn photography preserves what a phone camera simply can't.
-
Because you deserve beautiful photos of yourself too
Not just your baby — you, in this moment. Holding the person you grew. These images will mean as much to your child one day as they mean to you right now.
-
Because you'll want something more than a phone screenshot
Professional studio lighting, intentional composition, and gentle expert posing create images that look as significant as this moment actually is — and that you'll be proud to print and display.
-
Because your baby's story starts right here
Someday your child will ask where their story began. These images are the answer — proof that before they were old enough to know it, they were already completely, unconditionally loved.
-
Because ij Photo was built for exactly this moment
25 years of experience. A calm, private studio in Everett. Same-day image viewing so you leave knowing what you're getting. Flexible scheduling around your baby's actual arrival. Everything is designed to make this easy.
-
Because you'll never regret having these photos
Not a single parent has ever looked back and said "I wish I hadn't done that newborn session." But many have wished they had. Book now — your future self will thank you.

Newborn Photography FAQs
When should I book my newborn photography session?
The best time to book newborn photos is during pregnancy, ideally in your second or early third trimester. Booking early ensures your photographer has availability around your due date.
What is the best age for newborn photos?
The ideal age for newborn photography is 10–21 days old. During this stage, babies sleep deeply and naturally curl into the sweet poses parents love.
What happens if my baby arrives early or late?
Your newborn session is scheduled based on your due date. Once your baby arrives, simply send a message, and we’ll adjust the session date if needed.
How do I schedule my newborn photography session if my baby hasn’t been born yet?
Newborn sessions are reserved using your due date. When booking online, choose a date about 10 days after your due date. Once your baby arrives, the session can easily be adjusted if needed.
How long does a newborn photography session take?
Session length depends on the package you choose. Full newborn sessions typically last 2 hours to allow time for feeding and soothing. Newborn mini sessions are about 1 hour and focus on baby-only images.
Do parents and siblings take photos with the baby?
Family photos depend on the session you choose. Full newborn sessions can include parents and siblings. Newborn mini sessions are designed for baby-only portraits.
What should parents wear for newborn photos?
Simple, neutral clothing photographs best for newborn sessions. Soft tones and minimal patterns help keep the focus on your baby.
Do I need to bring anything to my newborn photography session?
Most of the session is fully prepared with props, wraps, and sets. Just bring the usual baby essentials, like diapers, wipes, and a bottle or pacifier if you use one.
Are props and outfits provided for newborn photos?
Yes. The studio includes a variety of newborn props, wraps, blankets, and styled sets designed specifically for newborn photography.
What if my baby won’t sleep during the session?
Newborn photographers are experienced at soothing babies. Feeding breaks, cuddling, and patience are all part of the process to keep your baby comfortable.
Is newborn photography safe for my baby?
Yes. Your baby’s comfort and safety are always the top priority. All poses are done gently and safely with careful support throughout the session.
What if my baby is older than two weeks?
While the best age for newborn photos is 10–21 days, older babies can still be photographed beautifully with adjusted poses and styling.
Can newborn photos still be done if my baby was in the NICU?
Yes. If your baby spent time in the NICU or needed extra recovery time, newborn photos can still be taken once your baby is home and healthy. The session will simply be adjusted to your baby’s comfort and needs.
When will I see my newborn photos?
You’ll see your images in the studio right after your session and choose your favorite photos before you leave.
How many photos will I get from my newborn session?
The number of images included depends on the package you choose. After your session, you’ll view your images and select your favorites.
Do you offer albums or wall art for newborn photos?
Yes. Custom albums and wall art are available to turn your newborn photos into lasting heirlooms.
How much does newborn photography cost?
Newborn session fees start at $350 for a newborn mini session. Full newborn sessions include more time, sets, and the option to include parents and siblings. Packages include a set number of edited digital files, and additional images are $25 each with no minimum purchase, so you only buy the photos you love.
